Additional Information
The AEQ73110203 Ice Maker Assembly is an essential component for your LG refrigerator, ensuring a steady supply of ice cubes. When replacing the ice maker, make sure to switch off the refrigerator and disconnect the power supply. This part can typically resolve issues such as ice makers that no longer produce ice, produce very little ice, or leak water into the ice bin due to internal component failure. Installation might include mounting the new assembly with screws, connecting the wire harness, and securing the water supply line. It's vital to ensure that the water line is free from kinks or leaks for the ice maker to function correctly. After installation, it is recommended to monitor the first few batches of ice to ensure the unit is operating as expected.
